"Security on a Mac!"
Sam Pfeifle, editor of Security Systems News, has been blogging the ISC West show. He visited our booth yesterday, and we noticed that he was getting quite excited over our new exacqVision Mac client, which we were showing for the first time. In his blog post today entitled Security on a Mac!, Sam talks about our new Mac support:
Well, per usual, I don’t have much time to post, as ISC is kind of kicking me in the head (I suppose it wasn’t totally necessary that I be out till 2 a.m. gambling last night…), but there is at least one bit of exciting news:
You can finally get a video management system that works on a Mac!
This has been a complaint of mine ever since I’ve entered the industry - nothing works on a Mac. Considering that significant portions of certain industries - graphic design, education - use Macs almost exclusively, this seemed to me like a bit of an oversight. Well, Exacq has finally done it. They’ve got a great interface and a really powerful video management engine, and here at the show they’re actually showing it running on a Mac. I’ve never seen it before.
I talked to Roger Shuman at their booth and he says it was a response to integrators saying they wanted the capability for the educational vertical. Imagine that.
Thank you, Sam! We’re very pleased that you liked it.

One of the major new features in the upcoming Version 3.0 of the exacqVision IP video surveillance software is the Mac client. exacqVision currently supports both Windows and Linux natively, both on the server side and the client side. Now we’re adding Mac support.
